“Smile because you are alive. Because it happened. Because you’ve learned. Smile because you are now stronger. You have evolved. You are a higher version of yourself. Smile because every day is a new beginning and a chance for you to shed your old skin. Smile, just because.”

“We learn to tolerate the physical pain. You have to. But it’s the overwhelming emotional burden that makes you feel like someone is holding your head down in the water. You can fight it, but you can never overcome that crushing feeling. How are you supposed to get rid of an emotional suffocation when the source of it is never going to go away? Being sick is being stuck in the eternal clutch of the unknown. Any day anything could go wrong, or at least more wrong than it already has. It’s so hard not to feel anxious or depressed or completely lost when all that lies ahead is a giant question mark.”

“I think the worst thing you could do with a chronic illness is focus on getting better. It will tear you down physically because you will mistake a good week as a “recovery” and it will tear you down mentally because you will eventually relapse. Focus on being as healthy as you possibly can. Make the most of it. Live in this moment and not next months. Slowly you will see your mental and physical health improve. Its funny how we never find the things we search for.”

“Shoutout to the girls who PUT IN MAJOR WORK. Who are up early as hell for school/work. Girls that study. Grind. Who know sacrifice & discipline. Who persevere & prioritize self worth/love. Who rise above & hold it down even when they’re falling apart, to the girls who push harder”
